Why do the religiously motivated child-spankers all act like corporal punishment is the only way to instill self-discipline? No one likes an undisciplined person who cannot govern temper, behavior, or words. But why is physical pain considered the only way to develop that discipline?

Vyckie Garrison started No Longer Quivering to tell the story of her “escape” from the Quiverfull movement. Over time, NLQ has developed into a valuable resource of information regarding the deceptions and dangers of the Quiverfull philosophy and lifestyle.
